I love chickens, they are too adorably spunky. So I set about Flickr to find a suitable picture to work from after being inspired by the work of Jean Haines. I found a picture of a chicken destined, unfortunately for the dinner table and used watercolour, ink and white pen to celebrate the endearment I felt for her this week.

Hi, I am a self-taught watercolourist from England, I started oddkness.com to serve me as a journal to discover who I was and where I stand as an artist.

My work is devoted to the glorification of animals, being deprived their companionship in childhood has led me to become even more enchanted by their existence. I hope you enjoy my posts, and if you do — don’t be a stranger, I’d love to hear from you.
